Tweets prevent two British tourists from entering the US

Tweets prevent two British tourists from entering the US

While it's common knowledge to be careful about what you say in public, it looks like that practice will have to apply to tweets as well. It has been reported that two British tourists were recently barred from entering the US when Homeland Security flagged them for a couple of insensitive tweets. Instead of being received with open arms when they arrived at the airport, they were greeted by US security, interrogated for five hours, and locked up over night. They were then sent back to the UK the next morning.
